Conversion Formula

The formula to convert acres to square inches multiplies the number of acres by 43,560 (square feet per acre) and then by 144 (square inches per square foot). This works because it converts an area measurement from acres into a smaller, more precise unit, inches squared. For example, for 1 acre:
